I am fish

While helping Wei Tingxu massage his waist, Zhen Wenjun couldn't say anything, and Wei Tingxu didn't speak, and the already quiet tent became even more stuffy.

Zhen Wenjun pressed tirelessly, and Wei Tingxu lay on the bed without making a sound, but she knew that Wei Tingxu was definitely not asleep.

This person can no longer be described as cloudy or cloudy. Her heart is deeper than the sea. One moment she felt that she had become a confidant, but the next moment she was taken out and hacked into pieces.

So let's forget about the reluctant parting.

After burning two sticks of incense, Wei Tingxu finally said, "My sister is tired, go and rest."

Zhen Wenjun hugged the blanket and left, Wei Tingxu called her: "Where is my sister going?"

"I didn't go anywhere, I just slept here." Zhen Wenjun pointed to the place where she was standing.

"How can I sleep on the ground in the cold spring, and I'm not afraid of being cold. Come and sleep with my sister."

Zhen Wenjun said "Oh" and came back again, threw the blanket to Wei Tingxu's side, turned off the oil lamp and got in unceremoniously.

Xiaohua is really skillful, and the bedding is soft and warm, which makes people feel comfortable.Zhen Wenjun rubbed the tip of his cold nose, thinking that Wei Tingxu would really enjoy it, did she hide in such a comfortable place every winter night that was frighteningly cold.

While thinking about how the little flowers are arranged softly, suddenly a hot body is pressed against her.

Zhen Wenjun was stunned, the back of her hand touched a piece of soft and delicate skin in the dark, she bravely moved her wrist deliberately, the back of her finger seemed to slide over the flawless warm jade, the body fragrance wafted from the quilt, making her palpitate uncontrollably .

Could it be that Wei Tingxu was only wearing heart clothes?

The heart garment only covers the front chest, two thin belts pass through the body, and are tied on the exposed back and waist, it is the most close-fitting clothing.On weekdays, when she and Lingbi slept together, she also liked to wear only one heart dress, after all, the two of them were not next to each other and the quilt was not next to each other.But now she and Wei Tingxu are in the same bed, and Wei Tingxu is so informal.

"What's the matter, sister." Zhen Wenjun looked at the pitch-black canopy, and all the moves flashed in front of his eyes were the "Xuannv Nine Techniques" taught by Yueshi Ajiao.

"cold."

Hearing her humming the word "cold" weakly and bonelessly, Zhen Wenjun's heart felt hot, and he turned to look at her.Seeing that a corner of her smooth narrow shoulders was exposed outside the blanket, a ray of moonlight happened to shine in through the small airy window, spreading a faint blue light from her shoulders to her eyes.Wei Tingxu also looked at her, his pupils were as bright as stars in the darkness, as deep and brilliant as if hiding the entire cosmic room.

Zhen Wenjun raised his upper body and approached.

Wei Tingxu's lips slightly moved away from his lower lip, his air was like a blue orchid.

Zhen Wenjun raised his hand, squeezed the blanket to cover Wei Tingxu's shoulders, and hugged her in his arms through the blanket.

"Is this warmer?" Zhen Wenjun asked.

When Wei Tingxu spoke again, he lost any emotion, and only gave a faint "hmm".

Zhen Wenjun rested his chin on Wei Tingxu's neck, smiled secretly, and let her go.When she let go, the earlobe brushed against her ear unintentionally, and she lay down again without any nostalgia.

The hot night ended in a silent battle of ice and fire.

Although covered with the same quilt, the two never touched each other again.

Zhen Wenjun's breathing was steady, as if he had fallen asleep.

Wei Tingxu turned over and found the heart clothes that had been piled up in the corner of the quilt, and quietly put them on.After Xinyi covered her naked body again, she closed her angry eyes and tried hard to find sleepiness.

Waking up early the next morning, Wei Tingxu called Xiao Hua softly, and someone answered immediately at the door.It turned out that Xiaohua stayed outside the tent last night, when the curtain of the tent was lifted, Lingbi came in with Xiaohua carrying hot water, and waited for Wei Tingxu to get up and wash.

Zhen Wenjun naturally reached out and took the robe that Xiao Hua brought, and lightly shook it over Wei Tingxu's body, and said with a clear sense of loss:

"I've only been close to my sister for a few days and I'm about to leave. Although I feel sad, I will die for my sister. The only thing I worry about now is that my sister has no one to take care of me. I have a local remedy for this back pain. It might work, my sister might as well try it. Every night before going to sleep, I wrap extinguished charcoal in a fireproof cloth and put it on my waist to warm it up. Stay and take care of my sister."

After Zhen Wenjun dressed her, Wei Tingxu brushed Zhen Wenjun's cheeks with his cold fingertips: "I've been used to this backache for so many years, not to mention there are Xiaohua and Xu Weng's master and apprentice here, so my sister doesn't have to worry. But this trip How to raise the [-] carts of food, my sister has an idea?"

Everyone knows that there is no food to collect in Dayu territory, if there is any, it is a rare private food collected by various gentry families.Food from wars and famines has long been more precious than gold and silver, and it is even impossible for them to spit it out.If there is a rich place in the world that is not affected by wars and famines, it is probably only the place where the Gujin clan in the southeast of Dayu lived - Sudu.

Sudu is Xiaohua's hometown, where the rain is abundant, the climate is hot all year round, the vegetation is luxuriant and the species are novel, and there are large tracts of fertile fields. Every autumn harvest, the grains are ripe, and the houses are full of rice.Zhen Wenjun will know that this is not what his mother taught him, but that Lingbi will tell him some gossip and rumors among the various noble families before going to bed during this trip, including the Wang family of Sudu.Back then when the Gukai clan was defeated, their lord came to Dayu to send a letter of surrender, willing to submit to Dayu.At that time, Da Yu didn't appreciate this small place, so he left an army stationed there. Only some offshoots of the noble families in Nanya County of Da Yu moved there, including the Nanya Wang family. offshoot.The offshoot of the Wang family is thriving in Suduying, occupying thousands of acres of fertile land, and this year even sent tens of thousands of carts of grain to the direct descendants.

The rumors and gossips mentioned by Lingbi did not sound special at the time, but now that they think about it, they are extremely clear clues.Could this be Wei Tingxu's instruction?So that the [-] carts of food that are on her head today can be found somewhere?

It's just... this Wang family is not the party of the Wei family. No matter how powerful the Wei family is in Dayu, could it still influence Sudu?

Wei Tingxu just gave her a direction, and she still had to rely on herself to make things happen.

At this point in his thoughts, Zhen Wenjun said: "My sister knows it well, please wait for the good news."

Wei Tingxu nodded: "I believe my sister will not disappoint me. But in case my sister encounters difficulties, don't forget to try the function of the Wei family talisman."

Zhen Wenjun was moved, and was about to say some compliments, but Wei Tingxu smiled playfully:

"It doesn't matter if you can't get [-] cars, I have already thought of a way to punish you."

Zhen Wenjun: "..."

"Okay, it's time to leave. Lingbi has already packed her luggage. If you go early, you can return early. I'm waiting to clean up my sister."

I'm afraid I'm ready to watch my jokes——Zhen Wenjun said in his heart.Since Wei Tingxu made up his mind that she might not be able to do it, it means that there must be difficulties and obstacles ahead of this trip to Sudu.

However, Zhen Wenjun was greatly relieved that he didn't have to go to Suichuan after all.She even prepared a mask to cover her face, so it's a happy thing that she doesn't have to go now.

Having prepared the carriage, Zhen Wenjun took three attendants and a groom, and set off with Lingbi to head south again.

After walking day and night for nearly half a month, Zhen Wenjun was in a hurry. At this speed, she didn't have a few days to collect food, and the time spent on the road would take a month.After entering Nanya County, he ate casually and fed the horses. After recuperating for half an hour, he continued to go to Sudu.

The journey was so fast that they didn't even have time to take a rest, and even if Xiaohua wasn't around, no one prepared food and wine. They could only eat steamed cakes as hard as sackcloth and dried meat as bark.Lingbi lost a lot of weight due to the torture, her face was blackened, and Zhen Wenjun pestered her to teach martial arts all day long.At night when they pitched a tent and went camping, they couldn't sleep. Zhen Wenjun took her and asked her about various sword techniques.Often Zhen Wenjun was still sweating and practicing, and when he was confused, he turned to ask Lingbi, and saw that Lingbi had been taken away by Zhou Gong long ago and went to dreamland.

After handing over the customs clearance documents and leaving the territory of Dayu, the flat road was gone forever, and the carriage moved forward on the narrow and rugged mountain road.

On the left is a steep and dangerous peak, and on the right is a cliff of ten thousand feet. The dense fog lingers in the mountains and only a narrow road ten steps away can be seen. The experienced coachman tightens the reins and carefully controls the speed and direction of the horse. On the slippery and tight stone steps that only allow a carriage to pass, occasionally slipped and slipped, which scared the people in the carriage into a cold sweat.

After walking for three hours on the mountain road, we finally reached the peak at noon.At this time, the dense fog dissipated, and looking down from the peak, the yellow and green terraced fields fell into view, and flocks of swan geese farther away were heading north.Zhen Wenjun got off the carriage and stood on the edge of the cliff, facing the thick fog that was blown into white waves, his clothes rattled.When I feel relaxed and happy, I think of my hometown thousands of miles away, and it is inevitable to feel sad.

Aunt, now that I am in a foreign land, I want to share the beautiful scenery in front of me with you, but I don't know where you are.It has been three years since I was forced to leave Qi County, and I will continue to forge ahead.

When we came down from the top of the mountain, the road was still difficult to walk, but the fog had melted, and the road was clear in front of our eyes. The groom swung his whip more frequently, and the horse could finally spread its hooves and run faster.

In an hour, I went down the mountain and set foot on the long field ridge.

Rice fields stretch as far as the eye can see on both sides of the field ridge. Farmers are wearing yellow headscarves with their upper body exposed and narrow hakama underneath, and they are working diligently.The vibrancy and exotic atmosphere that I haven’t seen for a long time made Zhen Wenjun poke his head out to look around. He saw a farm girl standing upright and wiping her sweat. Although her face was flushed from exposure to the sun all year round, she could still see her beautiful features and figure. Graceful.Zhen Wenjun secretly sighed that Lingbi was not bluffing, this girl from the Gujian tribe was indeed good-looking, every farmer she saw had such beauty, I don't know if Xiaohua used to look similar to her.

After crossing the field ridge and entering the village, the village houses here are built very low along the only long road, and every family has its own poultry pen and granary.Zhen Wenjun inspected it carefully, and found that the chickens and ducks were full of cattle and sheep, and even the most important and most private granary in Dayu opened the door openly.

Zhen Wenjun was delighted that there was indeed grain to be harvested here.

After passing through three small villages, we will arrive at the destination of this trip, the largest city on the border of Sudu - Tajiang.The Wang family they are looking for is in the city of Tajiang.

Wanting to enter the city gate of Dajiang, the soldiers at the gate did not let them go after handing over Da Yu's customs clearance documents, and even wanted to escort them to the government office.Lingbi stepped forward and said a few words to them in the language of the Gukan nationality, temporarily slowing them down.

Lingbi said: "Da Yu fought with Su Du for a long time, Su Du was hostile to Da Yu from the imperial court down to the common people, and they didn't recognize your customs clearance document."

"What did you tell them?"

"I said that I am a descendant of Sudu. They don't seem to want to kidnap us again, but they probably won't let us enter the city easily."

"How can you speak the language of the Gujin tribe?"

"Of course Xiaohua taught it. I like to study these Hu languages ​​the most."

"Then what should we do now? Sister Lingbi might convince them?"

Lingbi thought for a while and said, "Where's the Wei family talisman that my sister gave you?"

Zhen Wenjun handed the talisman to her, and Lingbi took the talisman and went up to the soldier and said a few words, but the other party actually opened the door and let her go.

Zhen Wenjun couldn't believe it: "My sister's family is so powerful? The documents of the Dayu court don't work, but the talisman cards of the Wei family can pass the customs?"

Ling Bi got into the carriage and smiled a little stiffly: "Come up quickly, it's important to hurry."

After entering the city, he went straight to the Wang family. The groom had been to Dajiang before. The Wang family was a very famous family in the local area, so it was easy to find.On the way to Wang's house, Zhen Wenjun saw the bank of Changsun's family. There was a horizontal plaque hanging on the bank, and the words "Qiankun Bank" were written on the plaque.According to Ah Liao, she wrote all the inscriptions on their family's bank, and as long as you look for her calligraphy, you can use bank notes to cash in cash.

After Zhen Wenjun found a place to exchange the silver, he could go to the Wang family to collect grain.As soon as they arrived at the Wang family and handed over the 20 silver notes, the head of the Wang family immediately came out to greet them in person.

The head of the Wang family called himself Wang Jin. He was an old man in his 50s. He was not as tall as Zhen Wenjun.

Zhen Wenjun briefly stated his intention of harvesting grain, 20 taels of silver to buy 500 carts of grain, Wang Jin agreed on the spot, and took her to visit the granary.Wang Jin owns more than a dozen bunker-like granaries. She asked Zhen Wenjun to pay half of the deposit first. After three days, he would send all the [-] cars to the place she designated. If he wanted to send them out of Sudu, he would charge another [-]. Two travel expenses.

"No, as long as the food is ready, I will fetch it myself." Zhen Wenjun kept his mind on it.If [-] carts of grain are loaded in a large horse-drawn cart that transports military rations, it can be made into about [-] carts.When she came in, she saw that Wang Jin's granary was full of carts, and he must have extra carts for transporting grain and grass all year round.It would be best to deliver it directly to my sister, but although this Wang Jin is not indifferent, there is also a lot of contempt in his speech, probably because she is still young or her daughter's family, and she looks down on her. He may not be able to deliver as agreed.Although it is a little troublesome, Zhen Wenjun still chooses to deliver it himself.

She paid a deposit and gave 500 taels, saying that she would second the royal family's cart and manpower, and she would come to collect the grain in person three days later.

In three days, the two thousand carts of food were all loaded. Zhen Wenjun inspected it and handed over the rest of the silver, and asked Lingbi to tell the messenger to send a message to Wei Tingxu. She had completed the task, and asked her sister to tell her what to do next. Where is the food going.

Two thousand carts required a lot of land to park, so Zhen Wenjun parked the cart and horses in the wilderness, and lived outside, waiting for the messenger to reply.

When Lingbi and Zhen Wenjun were cooking soup around the fire, Zhen Wenjun fiddled with the dry wood with a branch, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong, and it was unreasonable that it went so smoothly.

If it was so easy, why did Wei Tingxu let her go there in person?With the Wei family's prestige in Sudu, she can definitely let Wang Jin pay tribute to her, can't she?

The more Zhen Wenjun thought about it, the more flustered she became. She held the dagger she had snatched from Mrs. Hongye in her hand, and ran towards the carriages and horses.

"What are you going to do?" Lingbi was startled when she saw her suddenly flashing her dagger, and followed to see, she actually used the dagger to cut open the sacks of grain, and the grain flowed to the ground. Check them out one by one.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Zhen Wenjun didn't have time to pay attention to her, and checked more than 20 cars without any problems.She climbed into the carriage again, threw the outer layer of sacks on the ground, pulled out the middle one and scratched it, a strong musty smell rushed out.

really.

Except for the outer layer which is good, the ones buried inside are so damp and moldy that they cannot be eaten at all.

Zhen Wenjun brought people back to look for Wang Jin overnight. Wang Jin touched the warm fingers in his palm and said in a strange way:

"Nowadays, the little lady knows what is going on in the world. A mere 20 taels of silver can only buy [-] carts of moldy grain. It's only fair."

The attendant was so angry that he wanted to draw a knife, but Zhen Wenjun pushed him back.

"My lord, the way of doing business is honesty. If there is no integrity, how can we stand? Please also ask the lord to take back the moldy grain, and the price of the grain can be negotiated."

"Negotiate again? Do you still have money?" Wang Jin chuckled. He had already seen through that 20 taels was Zhen Wenjun's property. "Besides, you also inspected the goods and signed the contract at that time. It's not me who repents, it's you."

Zhen Wenjun jumped up, didn't say anything more, handed his hands away, and directly took Lingbi and his entourage away.

"Can you bear this?" Lingbi was very angry when he walked to the door.

"Of course not." Zhen Wenjun's calm face suddenly changed when he came out of the gate of the palace, and he raised his eyebrows and looked back coldly, "Old man Wang Jin is so cunning and cunning as a fox, it is really disgusting. I not only want 20 car spirits I have to ask him to spit out all the [-] taels of silver for me. Today, I will let my grandma teach the old man how to miss his fingers. Let’s go!"
